Gumtree Valley

A Text-Based Experience

A Retro Farming Story based around Australia's Central Victoria.

You’ve inherited the Money.
Now you have to make it work.

Start with one of two struggling farms and turn it into a profitable operation — one month at a time. Manage your paddocks, raise livestock, balance your finances, and survive the realities of farming in a grounded, retro-style experience.

There are no shortcuts here.
Every decision matters.

Build Your Farm

Reclaim paddocks, improve soil quality, and decide what to grow or run. Rotate crops, manage weeds and disease, or let the land rest — the condition of your farm directly affects your success.

Trade the Local Market

Buy and sell livestock through a dynamic local market. Each pen is different — weights, breeds, and condition all vary. Pick the right stock and time your sales to turn a profit.

Manage Your Finances

Loans, repayments, and everyday expenses all add up. Stay on top of your cash flow, avoid running out of money, and build something sustainable.

Realistic Systems, Simple to Play
Crop rotation matters
Soil health changes over time
Weeds and disease impact yield
Fertiliser improves both soil and production
Livestock require planning to profit

All designed to feel real — without becoming complicated.
